Multi-shooting game machine

Abstract

A multi-shooting game machine is disclosed. According to the invention, the multi-shooting game machine is configured to include: a central monitor; a control unit that controls characters having different shapes from each other such that the characters are displayed on the central monitor at set times; and three or more game controllers, each of which has a shooting muzzle, a small monitor, and a shoot button for each player at a side of the central monitor. The small monitor displays a target setting screen on which one or more characters that appear on the central monitor can be set as targets. When a character is set as a target, a line is connected between the shooting muzzle and the corresponding character, and only the character connected by the line is hit by the shoot button. According to this configuration, the multi-shooting game machine has an effect of enjoying a fishing game in various ways.

The invention claimed is:

 wherein, when a character hit by any one of a bullet, a shell, or a weapon shot from the shooting muzzle is won, the control unit displays an accumulated won score on a credit window, the won score being calculated by multiplying a betting amount of the shot bullet, shell, or weapon by a scale factor of the won character, 
 wherein the small monitor displays a target setting screen on which one or more characters that appear on the central monitor are displayed to be distinguished as a character which has appeared on the central monitor and a character which has not appeared on the central monitor, and a displayed character can be set as a target, 
 wherein, when a character displayed on the target setting screen is clicked to be set as a target, a line is connected between the shooting muzzle and a corresponding character which are displayed on the central monitor, and only the character connected by the line is hit by any one of a bullet, a shell, or a weapon when the shoot button is pressed, 
 wherein each of the game controllers causes a character closest to the shooting muzzle to be first hit among characters displayed on a path through which any one of a bullet, a shell, or a weapon moves on the central monitor when any one of the bullet, the shell, or the weapon is shot without connection of a line between the shooting muzzle and a character, and when the character is not hit, each of the game controllers causes the bullet, the shell, or the weapon to be reflected from a wall surface of the central monitor and be reflected until any other character is hit, causes a line connected between the shooting muzzle and a character to be automatically removed when the corresponding character is won or exits from the central monitor, and shoots any one of a bullet, a shell, or a weapon at a character which appears on the central monitor, and 
 wherein the number of bullets, shells, or weapons which make a hit is displayed together with each character displayed on the central monitor or the small monitor. 
 
     
     
       2. The multi-shooting game machine according to  claim 1 , wherein, when a character displayed on the central monitor or the small monitor is won, “0” is displayed as the number of hits made by bullets, shells, or weapons which is displayed together with the corresponding character.
